This took me a while to write as i am struggling with my English at the moment so i am sorry whatever short comings i've made. Most comes first in DUTCH and have to translate it and i do find it difficult these days.

Now, i better get off here and prepare the bed for Chris and his friend Mels, while they are playing with the Wii.

Mylene,

What lovely things you received! I love the Believe ornament from Lillie. She did such a beautiful job on it. The cording looks good enough to eat. LOL It reminds me of a candy cane.

When is your birthday?

Hugs to you!

I think your English is wonderful, Mylene. If I had to post in Dutch, I bet I wouldn't do it more often than once or twice a month.

Wonderful stitching you've shared!

oh what wonderful goodies :-) You deserved each and every one! I was happy to send you some earrings - and if they aren't your style, my feelings won't be hurt if you regift them (or just give them) to someone else :-)

You are quite the lucky lady receiving all those great gifts. I'm sure you'll enjoy all your new stash. Your English is quite good and I'm impressed with anyone who knows more than one language. I only know English & don't always do it well. LOL
